BREAKING: A federal judge ruled that patient safety research must be restored to a government website after articles were removed by the Trump administration for including words like “LGBTQ” and “trans.” The government can’t censor medical research simply because it disfavors certain viewpoints.

"These bills are a Trojan horse. They come in with what seems like a very common sense argument: That we should keep kids from accessing adult websites. In reality, what's being passed is a broad censorship bill for the internet." www.lookoutnews.org/gov-hobbs-si...

Tucked in Trump’s bill: “No court of the United States may use appropriated funds to enforce a contempt citation for failure to comply with an injunction or temporary restraining order….” Short version: It will make it impossible for courts to contain him. Call the Senate and say “No.” #RFA

Republicans snuck an amendment into this bill to ban Affordable Care Act insurance plans from covering abortion care. This is part of their play for a national abortion ban, in the middle of the night, and ripping healthcare away from millions.

I just left a comment. If you are concerned that RFK Jr.'s FDA chief Marty Makary is limiting the Novavax COVID booster to those over 65 or with underlying conditions, and may do the same for Pfizer/Moderna as well, consider leaving a comment as well.

You have three days, starting today, to leave a public comment with the FDA about, say, why COVID-19 boosters should remain available to everyone and also free. "Individual consumer" is the category you most likely want (unless you are one of the other categories; if so, choose that).

Massively good news: The provision that would have let the trump administration strip the tax-exempt status of any nonprofit organization they wanted simply by declaring them to be a "terrorist supporting organization" has been removed from the budget bill. Pushing back against these people works.
